Connecting Network Devices and Checking Connectivity
Testing connectivity
3. Gently insert the fiber optic module into the port until the module clicks into place. The module is keyed to prevent incorrect
insertion.
Cabling a fiber optic module
Follow the steps to cable a fiber optic module.
1. Remove the protective covering from the fiber-optic port connectors and store the covering for future use.
2. Before cabling a fiber optic module, Brocade strongly recommends that the cable connectors and the port connectors are
cleaned thoroughly. For more information, refer to “Cleaning the fiber-optic connectors” .
3. Gently insert the cable connector or connectors (a tab on each connector should face upward) into the port connector or
connectors until the tabs lock into place.
4. Observe the link and active LEDs to determine if the network connections are functioning properly. Refer to Table 1 .
Cleaning the fiber-optic connectors
To avoid problems with the connection between the fiber optic module (SFP (mini-GBIC) or SFP+) and the fiber cable connectors,
Brocade strongly recommends that both connectors are cleaned thoroughly each time you disconnect and reconnect them. In particular,
dust can accumulate in the connectors and cause problems such as reducing the optic launch power.
To clean the fiber cable connectors, Brocade recommends that you use the fiber-optic cleaner that shipped with your Brocade device.
You can also purchase this type of cleaner from the following Website.

When not using an SFP or SFP+ connector, make sure to keep the protective covering on.
Testing connectivity
After you install the network cables, you can test network connectivity to other devices by pinging those devices. You also can observe the
LEDs related to network connection and perform trace routes.
Pinging an IP address
To verify that a TurboIron device can reach another device through the network, enter a command such as the following at any level of the
CLI on the TurboIron device.
TurboIron> ping 10.33.4.7
Syntax: ping ip addr | hostname [source ip addr ] [count num ] [timeout msec ] [ttl num ] [size byte ] [quiet] [numeric] [no-fragment]
[verify] [data 1-to-4 byte hex ] [brief]
NOTE
If you address the ping to the IP broadcast address, the device lists the first four responses to the ping.
Observing LEDs
After you install the network cables, you can observe certain LEDs to determine if the network connections are functioning properly.
Table 1 describes the LEDs related to network connections, the desired state of each LED, possible abnormal states of each LED, and
what to do if an LED indicates an abnormal state.
